A close up of an antique silver coin showing intricate designs on both sides. The round shape has a slightly raised edge with visible wear giving it a period look. The obverse features three HOPLITE figures arranged in a horizontal row at the top, depicted as muscular, rounded bodies wearing ANTIQUE helmets. Below them is a detailed Greek GALLEYER with an upturned prow topped with a lion head and an iron ram, drawn with geometric patterns including zig zag lines representing its structure. The lower half of the coin features a mythological creature, the sea horse hippocampus, with wings, a horse head and horse-like front legs and hooves and a long, curled fish tail. The creature is lying down with its body curled to the right, showing the prominent details of the wings on its back and the crest on its head. Its head is turned slightly to the left, showing movement and expressive eyes. The coin's surface shows signs of age and use, adding to its historical character. The high contrast between the metallic texture and the engraved elements highlights the fine detail and craftsmanship of this ancient artifact, conveying the essence of ancient art and mythology.
